Nossa! Eu já sabia que algumas pessoas pensavam que a gente falava espanhol, mas poxa! Brasil foi colonizado por Portugal! E não pela Espanha! Tão sabendo bonito! YES, WE SPEAK PORTUGUESE!

What worse is that people confuse Spanish with Portuguese. Yes some words and verb forms are similar, but they are completely different language It also show how little Portuguese is known compared to Spanish.

Sou brasileiro, com muito orgulho, e comecei a rir….é inacreditável… é óbvio que falamos PORTUGÜÊS, fomos colonizados por Portugal.

Um, I dont think this really helped. Did they speak Portuguese because there was Portuguese leader and rulers?
